Organellar inheritance in the green lineage: insights from Ostreococcus tauri [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Along the green lineage (Chlorophyta and Streptophyta), mitochondria and chloroplast are mainly uniparentally transmitted and their evolution is thus clonal. The mode of organellar inheritance in their ancestor is less certain.

Homologous Recombination in Clostridioides difficile Mediates Diversification of Cell Surface Features and Transport Systems

open access: yesmSphere, 2020
Illness caused by the pathogen Clostridioides difficile is widespread and can range in severity from mild diarrhea to sepsis and death. Strains of C. difficile isolated from human infections exhibit great genetic diversity, leading to the hypothesis that

The influence of recombination on human genetic diversity. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2006
In humans, the rate of recombination, as measured on the megabase scale, is positively associated with the level of genetic variation, as measured at the genic scale.

Interactions between BRCA2 and RAD51 for promoting homologous recombination in Leishmania infantum. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
In most organisms, the primary function of homologous recombination (HR) is to allow genome protection by the faithful repair of DNA double-strand breaks.

Genome-wide recombination variation in biparental segregating and reciprocal backcross populations provides information for introgression breeding in Brassica napus

open access: yesCrop Journal, 2023
Variation in patterns of recombination in plant genomes provides information about species evolution, genetic diversity and crop improvement. We investigated meiotic crossovers generated in biparental segregating and reciprocal backcross populations of ...

Genetic analysis of variation in human meiotic recombination.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2009
The number of recombination events per meiosis varies extensively among individuals. This recombination phenotype differs between female and male, and also among individuals of each gender.

Markov jump processes in modeling coalescent with recombination

open access: yes, 2014
Genetic recombination is one of the most important mechanisms that can generate and maintain diversity, and recombination information plays an important role in population genetic studies.

The extent of error-prone replication-restart by homologous recombination is controlled by Exo1 and checkpoint proteins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Genetic instability, a hallmark of cancer, can occur when the replication machinery encounters a barrier. The intra-S phase checkpoint maintains stalled replication forks in a replication-competent configuration by phosphorylating replisome components ...

Cattle Sex-Specific Recombination and Genetic Control from a Large Pedigree Analysis

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2015
Meiotic recombination is an essential biological process that generates genetic diversity and ensures proper segregation of chromosomes during meiosis. From a large USDA dairy cattle pedigree with over half a million genotyped animals, we extracted 186 ...

The coronavirus proofreading exoribonuclease mediates extensive viral recombination

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2020
Coronaviruses (CoVs) emerge as zoonoses and cause severe disease in humans, demonstrated by the SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) pandemic. RNA recombination is required during normal CoV replication for subgenomic mRNA (sgmRNA) synthesis and generates defective ...
